The July humidity was the highest on record for 18 states and the nation’s capital. Here’s where it was most humid (with the most unusually humid location listed first):
Record humidity: Pennsylvania, Maryland, West Virginia, D.C., Indiana, Ohio, New Jersey, Illinois, Michigan, Kentucky, Delaware, Virginia, Missouri, North Carolina, Tennessee, Arkansas, South Carolina, Alabama and Mississippi
I believe it. To keep out of the heat and humidity, I'm walking at 6:30 am. If I walk in the evening atcall it's usually after 8 pm. It’s miserable out there.
